A fragile flower from a Higan Weeping Cherry Tree.

Lovely shot. The glow produces a very special look!

I also like the image.  I would crop the bottom.  I think the image looks best when it is vertically centered.

Francois and Mark: Thank you.

...I would crop the bottom.

I appreciate your suggestion. As I processed it, the cropping increased. So, I'm a little reluctant to crop more, not that I don't think that it could improve the image.

Thanks, degrub. The more I look at it, the more I agree with the idea of a square crop. Good call!

I like it just as it is, but square would also work.
